At some point I'll find my wig head/stand and display them properly.

New con alert!! Just 3 hours west of the Salt Palace, will be the Elko Pop Culture Convention (and costume contest!) taking place August 18-19 in Elko, NV! Best in Show prize is $1,500 and the costume contest categories are Armor/Foamwork, Sewing/Textiles, and Youth. Only half the costume has to be handmade and there are cash prizes at all levels. Tell everyone you know!

There are also going to be workshops and panels there (lmk if you're interested in presenting either of these!), and the band High-Jacked will be playing at the Maverick casino that weekend too!

Entry to the con is also all about charity - admission is just canned food to be donated!

Final performance on stage at San Diego Comic Con 2022

Practicing our skit for the stage - it was WAY hot outside and we were dying, but the practice definitely helped.

92 hours and 12 minutes later - I had an Acklay Puppet! What's hilarious is the only reason I created this creature was because I thought the Mandalorian would be boring on stage alone. And it turned out to be the real show stopper - so glad I chose to go this direction!

I am very excited to announce that I'm taking on a project different than any I have done thus far! --- but I am not allowed to share what it is specifically, so these photo hints from 2019 will have to suffice. What I'm making will be based off of a popular Disney Parks attraction 💀

If you are interested in supporting these endeavors by becoming a part of this project, here is a link to an Amazon wish list with all the items I will need in order to create this piece: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3QIHSBOU0C6QB

I have such a great support net of friends who have cheered me on from the beginning, so any encouraging messages you can send throughout the next few months will be extra appreciated - the deadline for this undertaking is the beginning of September. I'm really nervous about it, but excited to get started!

Anyone who helps with the materials will qualify to receive a special custom creation of my own later this fall (based on this attraction). If all you can do is send some kind words, that is just as wonderful. Thank you guys so much - you give me life!
